[Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) ### Join Opto 22 and tech partner HiveMQ for a live demonstration of building a Unified Namespace with MQTT Sparkplug. Here's help for your manufacturing digital transformation: watch this live webinar showcasing MQTT technology. Opto 22 VP of Marketing & Product Strategy, Benson Hougland, will present along with OptoPartner [G5 Consulting](https://www.opto22.com/community/opto-partners/g5-consulting-llc-dba-g5-consulting-engineering)(now Spruik) and the team from [HiveMQ](https://www.opto22.com/community/technology-partners/tech-partner-hivemq). [![www.hivemq.comimgwebinarsog-image-for-how-to-achieve-data-driven-manufacturing-with-uns-v2](https://blog.opto22.com/hs-fs/hubfs/social-suggested-images/www.hivemq.comimgwebinarsog-image-for-how-to-achieve-data-driven-manufacturing-with-uns-v2.png?width=700&height=700&name=www.hivemq.comimgwebinarsog-image-for-how-to-achieve-data-driven-manufacturing-with-uns-v2.png)](https://www.hivemq.com/webinars/how-to-achieve-data-driven-manufacturing-with-uns/?utm_source=registration+page&utm_medium=opto+22&utm_campaign=UNS+Workshop) This live online event will demonstrate the power and benefits of building a [Unified Namespace](https://www.hivemq.com/unified-namespace-uns-essentials-iiot-industry-40/) using MQTT Sparkplug. You’ll witness firsthand how integrating network participants such as an MQTT Sparkplug Edge of Network Node from Opto 22, an MQTT Sparkplug Application from N3uron, an MQTT Sparkplug Host in the form of Ignition SCADA/IIoT platform, and a HiveMQ MQTT broker as the central hub, can revolutionize your manufacturing digital transformation strategy and help you move to become a data-driven organization. By the end of the event, you’ll understand how the UNS approach simplifies integration, reduces integration costs, improves agility and scalability, and accelerates time to results. This is a unique opportunity to gain insights and knowledge from industry experts and learn how to implement this cutting-edge technology in your own organization.
